Star and end location: Pirna, Germany

• Explore unique riding destinations with expert local advice on all-day, overnight and weekend trips that blend a self-sufficient ethos with support where you need it. Attended by a small group of Rapha Cycling Club members, every intimate getaway offers the best riding every location has to offer and a chance to connect with your clubmates.

THE ROUTE

• Setting out from Pirna, the gate to Saxon Switzerland, this Escape will tour the mountainous hinterland of eastern Germany. Over three days of riding, riders will discover the best riding the craggy borderlands have to offer. Saxony’s only national park is festooned with strangely eroded rock formations that will signpost this hilly multi-day riding getaway.
• Arriving on Friday, 13th May and riding for three days, the club will explore the varied landscapes around Saxon Switzerland and the eastern foothills of the Ore Mountains on routes planned and led by local Ride Leaders and Rapha staff. Prepare to cover 350 kilometres of tarmac roads over three days with plenty of elevation. The exact routes and trip details will be revealed closer to the event date.

THE RULES

• Escape Bohemia is a riding getaway to be completed by a group of self-sufficient yet supportive cyclists. To ensure you’re ready for the road, be sure to bring along two spare tubes, a multi-tool, a pump, a patch kit and a masterlink. We also highly recommend bringing a spare kit and plenty of food.
